Bob Prince , Paul Long, Jim Woods |The 1960 season was the Pirates 79th season. The 1960 team featured eight All-Stars, but was widely predicted to lose the World Series to a powerful
New York Yankees team. In one of the most memorable World Series in history, the Pirates were defeated by more than ten runs in three games, won three close games, then recovered from a 7-4 deficit late in Game 7 to eventually win on a walk-off home run by Mazeroski, a second baseman better known for defensive wizardry.Regular season
